Gone are the days when Microsoft considered open source technology a cancer to the society. It's time when the company has stopped bashing open source and has initiated steps to become open source friendly. The proprietary software king has become one of the largest contributors of Linux and has come up with an entirely new open source subsidiary. Microsoft has also allowed Linux on Azure platform. What more! Open source companies are taking such initiatives from Microsoft in a positive light. EFYTimes.com spoke exclusively to Jane Silber, chief executive officer of Canonical about recent open source friendly efforts from Microsoft. Excerpts:
What is your take on Microsoft's open source subsidiary?
I think Microsoft has got a lot smarter and a lot savvier about open source. We, Canonical, have a good relationship with Microsoft. We recently announced Ubuntu being supported on Azure, Microsoft's cloud. That's a positive relationship. I think in the previous years, Microsoft's strategy was based on fear and disdain. I think now they have recognised open source. Previously they were hoping open source to go away. But they are smart business people and know that open source is not going away anywhere. So they are adopting the strategy to figure out how to work together. I think that's a smart business move. They know that their customers want to use Linux and open source. However, I don't see them open-sourcing Windows ever. I don't think Microsoft will ever go to that extreme, but I think they are making pragmatic, realistic, smart business decisions about the fact that people live in a heterogeneous computing environment and open source and Linux are a part of the IT landscape. They have realised that the better everybody interacts with each other, the better will be the experience for the end-user and customers.
Any reasons for joining hands with Microsoft on Azure platform?
Microsoft's goal with Azure is to provide infrastructure that delivers computing resources and computing power to its users. Azure is the infrastructure piece and there are guest images and guest OSes that sit on top of that in the cloud. For Microsoft, it's a smart business decision to make sure that what they are delivering in that cloud is what people want to use. And for us, it's a smart business decision to make sure that people who want to use Ubuntu, even if they want to use around Windows can do that in a secure and certified manner. So, it was very obvious that we should work with Microsoft to make sure that Ubuntu that people are using in Azure Cloud is the best Ubuntu experience possible. It's what Microsoft's customers want and what our customers want as well. So it was a very natural partnership to strike. I think there is often a perception that there are some backroom deals, but there is none of these in this case. It is a very obvious business decision. The end-user wanted to use Ubuntu, we wanted them to use it, Microsoft wanted them to use it on their cloud and it all got aligned naturally.
So even if it was a business decision, Microsoft sees any other operating system as a competitor...
I would say, just like any operating system is a competitor to Ubuntu. People want to use the right tool for the job. I think it's important to be able to compete and co-operate with other companies. With so many big companies today dealing in a range of activities, competition is bound to happen in some areas. I think that's natural. If you allow that competition to stop you from working with someone, you will be very isolated. You have to learn to collaborate and compete. The collaboration often makes the competition easier because there is mutual respect from the collaborative efforts and vice versa. From competing you learn others' strengths and you appreciate those strengths sometimes.
Does that mean Microsoft was isolated so far and now these moves are taken in the direction of being collaborative?
I think Microsoft is certainly trying to establish itself with the open source community and open source advocates. But they are dominant player. It's not right to say that they are isolated. They are clearly the leading OS in many environments depending upon how you define those environments. As I said before, it is a pragmatic smart decision of theirs to learn how to work with open source competitors rather than trying to push them away. And in some ways it's a recognition on their part that open source is not going away. They tried to beat it but now they have realised that it is going to be there and let's figure out how to get the best out of it.
But what about the secure boot feature of Windows 8 that Microsoft is talking about and there is a lot of opposition from The Linux Foundation as well. What is your take on that?
I think there are different levels to the secure boot issue. There is a pure technical level at which there are benefits to secure boot. There are genuine technical security benefits to secure boot. There are some marketing and brand implementations on top of that, which are being driven by competitive concerns rather than technical security concerns. Stepping in those two areas is difficult and this is partly a reason behind some of the opposition to secure boot coming from Linux and open source community.
Does that mean Microsoft is not able to balance its intentions of being open source or not being open source?
Microsoft doesn't have any intentions of being open source. Microsoft has intentions of meeting their commercial goals as any company does including Canonical. We choose to do it the open source way. We think that's a better and more effective way, while Microsoft chooses a different path. In choosing their path, they become more accepting of open source alternatives and they recognise the need to work together with those. But I don't think it's correct to say that Microsoft has gone open source or is going open source. I think their view of open source has matured and they recognise it as a player in the ecosystem. That doesn't mean they are not going to compete against it. In general, we all know that fair competition largely results in a better experience for the customer. There are obvious issues and historical issues with Microsoft about fair competition but as far as our dealings with Microsoft is concerned, they have been a very good partner around the Azure collaboration. It's a solid partnership that can benefit both the organisations.
What is coming up in future in between Canonical and Microsoft? Do we see more partnerships between proprietary and open source companies on any other level?
I don't have anything specific to share but I think in general that's the trend. I think people will use more and more Linux and Ubuntu and there will be more and more touch points with Microsoft. Things like cloud computing will improve the relationship simply because of the nature of the cloud, which means people are freely moving between platforms. I think the number of places where those platform choices or operating system choices will come in contact with each other will increase and I think its in everybody's interest to make those smooth interactions. I don't have a specific example of what that may look like but the days of Microsoft really bashing open source are ending.

1. very negative title for the post still stuck in the 90s.2. google search-engine gmail are not open source they are proprietary3. to leverage the benefits of open source community companies have to develop new biz models4. playing nice with FOSS and willing to live together should be the true one step needed to get admiration5. it will take 20 more years for a world with all software as open source but it will happen.

Wild Women Do…..Rodeo Drive
Manish Arora Fall 2013
You can take the girl out of the early '90s, but you can't take the early '90s out of the girl….Manish Arora's fall collection is reminiscent of the edgy-playfulness in early nineties power-dressing. In fact the bright yellow and pink polka-dotted ensembles could pass and the gaultier-esque heavily gilded street-pharoh-inspired looks would be able to pass as vintage '91/'92 Chanel and Versace ensembles.

"But for real, you ever kiss anyone else and I'll kill 'em, and you won't get laid for a year."
Title: I Have a Rendezvous With Death Rating: M Main Pairings : Sephiroth/Cloud, Rufus/Reno. Genre : Action/Adventure, Romance, Angst, Time travel Warnings : M/M...it all. As her glowing energy began to unravel, she felt the darkness reach out to her, touching her gently like her mother used to stroke her hair. Thank you .
While waiting for my friend to finish compiling our final project, I watched this video: I remember feeling awesome while playing this part of FF7 coz I could slap Scarlet! *gleeeeeee*
Seriously internet? Is there really not one buddy cop AU about Sephiroth and Zack? Even from the millions upon millions of fics in which they are fucking, there is not one? It has to be out there, just...Fuzz-style Tiger and Bunny AU and I'm sure that if I found it it would be terrible but goddamn, the serious uptight superior officer paired with the goof-off hyper rookie is too ridiculously perfect
[Aerith had arrived a few hours ago, injured and extremely confused. It had taken a couple of moogles some time to calm her down and explain what they could. Not that they'd given her much to go on -...the area. [There is a long pause as she tries to think of anything else - should she ask for her friends? Ask about her home? She decides to just leave it as it is for now and the video cuts off.
[Yazoo can be seen, not particularly amused, near a Christmas tree. Or at least he assumed that's what it was. He did not understand why anyone would enjoy decorating a soon to be dead plant. But then...that often did not make logical sense]. Hm. How pointless. I wonder if the rest of you truly realize how pathetic these holiday festivities are. It just shows how right Mother was about humanity
[ first there's the sound of something heavy being set into the ground. then a sigh follows. ] Never seems to end, does it? [ he sits down, muttering to himself ] And here I thought it was finally done with.
[ You see a man at a ranch, tending to some massive birds-- chocobos. They've been free range for a while now, but he's just gotten done going through a million random encounters bringing them back...guy up and leaves for a while, don't they? [ He pats her beak, she shakes her head, as if indignantly agreeing. ] I guess that's a no for a ride this afternoon, huh? Can't say I don't deserve it
[the fal'cie certainly have picked a convenient time to screw around with her, haven't they? they'd just been about to go up and pay a visit to orphan, after sojourning on pul-- gran pulse for awhile...someone out in awhile. her knuckles are itching to connect with someone's jaw.] Hope? Fang? Snow? If any of you are here, report to me immediately. We're going to find a way out of here. Now
[Soon enough, an anthropomorphic mouse is shown on the video feed, looking equal amounts apologetic and optimistic.] Hiya everybody! I know things are real confusing right now with the influx of newcomers... [Pause... He brings a hand to his chin, looking thoughtful.] Gosh... Am I missing anything? Well! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! I'll be happy to help in any way I can

Despite a slow start, the Thunder absolutely laid waste to the Utah Jazz on Sunday in Oklahoma City for the team's first truly dominating win of the season in the team's first-ever regular season home game without Russell Westbrook.
The Thunder announced before the game that Westbrook would take the night off, giving him five consecutive days of relative rest as he navigates the first few weeks of his post-surgery season. But OKC did just fine against the lowly Jazz without its firebrand point guard, putting away an inferior team in emphatic fashion for the first time this season.
Both teams played some pretty brutal basketball to start the game, as the Thunder and Jazz combined to shoot 4-of-22 to start the game by putting up brick after brick. But Oklahoma City eventually got back on track, and Utah never got going until it was far too late and the likes of Ryan Gomes and Andre Roberson were getting extended run for the Thunder.
Reggie Jackson played admirably in Westbrook's absence, as few now would doubt that he can. He kept Jazz rookie Trey Burke, making his first career pro start, from getting into the lane and establishing a rhythm, and mixed in his usual smooth drives and sharp passing to finish with seven assists against only two turnovers. Keep Reading…

I adore these costume kits from Etsy shop, DIY Costumes. Last year we gave one away, but this year I'll ask you to support the creator of the kits, Cassie Divine, and just buy one. I mean, she has provided us with a way to produce a handmade Halloween costume — no sewing skills required!
The kits contain everything you need to transform a plain sweatsuit into an animal for your child. The felt pieces are already cut out.
Baby/toddler kits (up to 5T) are listed by the name of the creature and come in three easy options based on the amount of time you want to invest…from 15 minutes to 2 hours. Your toddler could be monkeying around in less than an hour!
Which one do you love? (Please excuse all the old comments. I used the same post as last year because I am a tad lazy.)

I would so much rather be on this wonderful website chatting with you ladies and doing all things wedding (obviously...I'm here now when I have online work due at 4 am). Plus they are mostly online and I hate online classes because they really bring out my procrastination ;P I just have to push through!

My amigo Todd at work, completing his one of his many new paintings for his upcoming show. The silk screens in the back ground are less then half done and look great!
This is what has had our pal Jean Labourdette busy these past 2 months. He released his collaboration with our amigo and fellow artist Martin Wittfooth! It's wrapped and ready to ship, it will be exhibited January 24th at La Halle St-Pierre in Paris. This is their first project together. The show runs through September 2013.
These dudes are inspirational! Love their work! The altarpiece is a tribute to Jan van Eyck's famous polyptych of the same name. Simply Badass.
Kozyndan, are husband-and-wife and artists who work collaboratively to create highly detailed paintings and drawings for both illustration and fine art.
Jon, Kate, Chris, his wife Zoya and I stopped by to view the work on opening night for their Breaking Circles, Broken Light exhibition at Narwhal. Their works are stunning! The show runs until December 16, 2012! Go see it!
We opened Golden Delicious II on Friday at Studio Calavera! What a great night, thanks to everyone that came out! More photos from our Golden Delicious II Exhibition are online at www.studiocalavera.com!
I worked with 4ormat to launch my new website earlier this year. Lucas Dryja, the CEO of 4ormat, a gifted designer and also a friend of mine worked with me while designing the site. It was great to have assistance with such a short time frame to create and launch a site that will, in essence, be a reflection of myself and my artwork. Six months after the launch I am still impressed, it's a joy to use.
After seeing friends frustrated by the technical requirements of creating a professional online portfolio, 4ormat decided to create a solution that can be used by anyone. 4ormat allows you to easily update almost any aspect of your website.
It has excellent additional features like file sharing, size reformatting and mobile mobilization. If you're looking for a new website layout, a better way to showcase your work and a great platform 4ormat.com is the perfect option!
*Others also using 4ormat.com include, http://jontodd.ca and http://studiocalavera.com
I sat down with director Gene Cuvier of Que, a new online series talking with upcoming talent about their work and current projects. Que connects talent in film to new fans. I talk art, inspiration and my upcoming solo show at Goodfellas Gallery.

Jon Todd and I began work on our collaboration piece, 42 X 36 in size. This will also be available in August at my upcoming exhibition.
Jon Todd was working away at his very small 3" painting for an upcoming show. Looks great.
Jon Todd went to China a few months ago. He brought back some hand painted and screen-printed poster propaganda art. Decided to hang some up in the studio! Gnarly!
On Saturday, March 3, the members of the Ministry were invited to attend a talk at Cooper Cole Gallery from internationally exhibited mixed media artist Brendan Monroe. His latest show, Observations of Light and Matter, opened at Cooper Cole on March 2, and is his first time exhibiting in Canada. Jon Todd and I stopped by to see some of Monroe's work.

Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge and arts, represents the free flow of wisdom and consciousness.
She has four hands representing four aspects of human personality in learning: mind, intellect, alertness and ego. She has sacred scriptures in one hand and a lotus – the symbol of true knowledge – in the second. With her other two hands she plays the music of love and life on a string instrument called the veena.
She is dressed in white – the symbol of purity – and rides on a white swan – symbolizing Sattwa Guna or purity and discrimination. Saraswati is also a prominent figure in Buddhist iconography - the consort of Manjushri.

Being obese makes you more likely than people of normal weight to get a blood clot deep in a vein. The primary danger of this deep-vein thrombosis, or DVT, is that the clot, usually in the leg, can dislodge and travel to the lungs, causing a serious blockage known as a pulmonary embolism, or PE.
Read the Obesity and DVT article > >
Slowed blood flow
Blood does not flow normally if you are not active for long periods of time. Examples include:
- Long-term bed rest, such as after a surgery, injury, or serious illness.
- Sitting for a long time, especially when traveling long distances.
- Leg paralysis.
Abnormal clotting
Some people have blood that clots too easily or too quickly. Problems that may cause increased clotting include:
- Inherited blood-clotting problems.
- Family history of close relatives, such as a sibling, who has had deep vein thrombosis or a pulmonary embolism.
- Cancer and its treatment.
- Blood vessel diseases, such as varicose veins, heart attack, heart failure, or a stroke.
- Pregnancy. A woman's risk for developing blood clots increases both during pregnancy and shortly after delivery or after a cesarean section.
- Using hormone therapy or birth control pills or patches.
- Smoking.
Injury to the blood vessel wall
Blood is more likely to clot in veins shortly after they are injured. Examples include:
- Recent surgery that involved the legs, hips, belly, or brain.
- Having a central venous catheter during a hospital stay.
- Injury, such as a broken hip.

Play some card games with the cast of Zelda

From the Publisher
"Bill Belleville has written a thoughtful and engaging book about a great American river. He fully appreciates the natural values and rich history of the St. Johns and makes what I hope is a compelling case for the preservation of what is left of its native ecology and wild spirit."--Christopher Camuto, author of Another Country: Journeying toward the Cherokee Mountains
"On a slow poke by kayak down Florida's St. Johns River, journalist Belleville listens attentively and yearningly for biophilic strains from the historic waterway. . . . . Belleville reveals the waterway's exotic voluptuousness . . . in writing that is both silvery and refreshingly unrehearsed . . . two qualities much in keeping with the milieu. Belleville creates in the reader a protective affection for the St. Johns, all any river can ask of its lover."--Kirkus Reviews
"Every once in a while a book comes along that explores and defines a place or a time so thoroughly, holding up for view what otherwise is transient and hidden, that it can be called a classic. Such a book is River of Lakes. . . . Belleville's writing is by turns lyrical, elegiac, scholarly, down-home, and downright hilarious."--Florida Today
"Belleville's book is rich in history, both natural and human. This well-researched travelog is a must for every Floridian's adventure library."--St. Petersburg Times
"What an adventure . . . [Belleville's] Mark Twain-like excursion downriver is a laid back, kick-your-shoes-off lollygag that includes shooting some rapids in a kayak, exploring ornate underground caves in diving equipment, and communicating with fishermen, scientists, and river historians about the significance of a major U.S. waterway."--Booklist
"In this fascinating work, Belleville explores the state's longest river firsthand. He kayaks and boats the St. Johns, hikes its forests, dives its springs. He talks to scientists, fisherman, historians, and residents. And he depicts, with finely tuned prose, the many threats it faces from haphazard development and destructive pollution. Readers will learn a lot about the history, its ecology, and its too-often shortsighted political policies. Throughout are fascinating facts—from tidbits on the moans of spawning fish to the disappearance of Fort Picolata. . . . [Belleville] captures the beauty and appeal of the river of which Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings once wrote,'If I could have, to hold forever, one brief place and time of beauty, I think I might choose the night on that high lonely bank above the St. Johns River.' A superb book."--Tampa Tribune
"[Belleville] combines erudite insights into environmental science, wildlife, social and political science, economics, sports, and a wide range of other subjects related to the history and development of the St. Johns. . . [A] tour-de-force."--Publishers Weekly
"Early on in Bill Belleville's exploration of Florida's St. Johns River he asks: 'Could I still find an authentic experience here, in a go-fast state that seems either in a swoon with 'progress' and contrived theme-worldish fun or randomly sullied by crime and violence?' Belleville's rich and detailed book about his trip downstream, River of Lakes, is thus cast as a quest for the 'real' Florida, a search for something unique in time and place that exposes the essence of our fair state. . . . Belleville's keen insight, deep research, and sparkling prose carry us down Florida's longest river, and we are better for the trip."--Tallahassee Democrat

I took note of this tremendous neologism I found today on my Twitter feed.
English word formation has my heart.
Neuroscientists identify key role of language gene
Some highlights:
Researchers from MIT and several European universities have shown that the human version of a gene called Foxp2 makes it easier to transform new experiences into routine procedures. When they engineered mice to express humanized Foxp2, the mice learned to run a maze much more quickly than normal mice.
All animal species communicate with each other, but humans have a unique ability to generate and comprehend language. Foxp2 is one of several genes that scientists believe may have contributed to the development of these linguistic skills. The gene was first identified in a group of family members who had severe difficulties in speaking and understanding speech, and who were found to carry a mutated version of the Foxp2 gene
Using another type of maze called a cross-maze, Schreiweis and her MIT colleagues were able to test the mice's ability in each of type of memory alone, as well as the interaction of the two types. They found that the mice with humanized Foxp2 performed the same as normal mice when just one type of memory was needed, but their performance was superior when the learning task required them to convert declarative memories into habitual routines. The key finding was therefore that the humanized Foxp2 gene makes it easier to turn mindful actions into behavioral routines.
Another way to present the 9 types of intelligence as exemplified by my How Do We Measure Intelligence post.
The basic idea is that different people are good at different things. These 9 probably don't cover the wide range of smarts we all possess, but it's a start.
As Albert Einstein said, "Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."
Made me think of that feeling when they propose you math tasks to measure your intelligence… not only math has to be learned but it's not the only way we have to measure intelligence… ^

The first and the last | SISSA. Children start to learn the sound of words by remembering the first and last syllables. A SISSA study, published in Child Development, sheds light on the information the infant brain uses during language acquisition and the format in which it stores words in its memory
This makes a lot of sense to me. That's actually what adults do too when the channel's too noisy: we try to 'catch' the first and the last syllable in order to understand which word has been uttered.
But then I remember that when my little sister was 3 or 4, she used to say 'ticarra' instead of 'chitarra' ('guitar'), switching the first and the second syllable, hence remembering correctly ony the last one and I've heard other children apply this kind of metathesis, too.

I can hardly believe it's been a whole year since I've started tumbling. This site has been so wonderful for me. I've learned so many things about languages and linguistics, and I've made friends too! You all rock!
So for my tumblrthday, I've compiled a list of all the languages that I have done graphics for, sorted alphabetically in English. As you can see, the tumblrthday graphic design was inspired by my tribute to Central American countries.
Remember that you can always request me to make the graphics in any language! There's just one thing: you have to give me the translations of all the words that appear on the graphic. If you don't know the language well enough, you can ask someone or ask me, and I can put it out to my followers.
I've had lots of people say that seeing the information in graphic form really helps them, so I definitely want to keep going with this! If you have any other requests for different areas of language you would like represented graphically, I will take those requests too!

Compared to the HTC One M8 and iPhone, in terms of functionality and value for money this is a phone worth considering. The contract price each month is a lot less for the 610 than the two aforementioned phones.If you don't like the plastic back, you can buy a case which are cheap from eBay. The bezel detracts from the real size of the display, but you get used to it after a while. The phone is easy to use and looks good. The 610 is a mid range phone and you have to purchase the phone taking that into consideration. It is not branded as a high end range phone.
